TEMPERANCE COLUMN.
Conduct, i by lola w. G.. T. w.

As an organiza ton, the weapons of
our warfare have been more defensive
than offensive. and have proven mad.
equate for the work which they were
designed to accomplish. Our noblest
leaders have been convinced after years
of experience, that something more is
required Of them than simply to create
new departments for counteracting the
multitude Of evils that grow out of the
liquor traffic. Armed with a temper
ance ballot men and women could then
prevent the evils they seek to cure.
Prof. Garfield says: whether or not we
all agree as to the ways and means,
plans and methods, we are as one, as
to tho desired results-equal suffrage,
in this State and in the Union. Wise
from the standpoint of policy right,
from the standpoint of justice; neces-
sgry, from the standpoint of good gov
eminent.
The only honorable way in which
wise and honorable men can meet
them who as wives and mothers daily
demonstrate their peculiar fitness to
participate in all that pertains to the
general welfare of mankind.
The National Brewers Association
resolved "to oppose always and every
where the ballot in tho hands of wo.
men,"
Over one million dollars are spent
each year for whisky by the inmates of
the Soldiers Home at Dayton, Ohio.
THE GOOD.
Counting all the churches and mis-
sions given in the directory, Protestant
Catholic and Jewish, there are in
Chicago 3N places for the worship of
God. Many of this number are open
not over once q week. A fair average
would be three times week aggrega-
ting in all. about hours. 3O4 9 hours
q week equals 2, 736 hours q week.
THE EVIL
From the directory again we find in
Chicago about $500 saloons, which If
placed ina row would furnish eighteen
miles Of saloons. Each one ie open on
an average eighteen hours a day.
Eighteen hours in each days equals
l26 hours. $500 saloons open 126
hours weekly equals 47s. 800 hours,
against 2,736, or 17s hours of evil to l
hour of good.
The annual liquor bill ofthe country
would send Bible to every inhabitant
Of the globe.
For every missionary we send to the

I'd States for religious purposes Is one
1ollar and ten cents per head. for edu.
purposes two dollars and two

million dollars for intoxicat-

imagine the moral and physical evils,
present and prospective which are in
'olved In that terrible fact? Are we

in each family can not be overestimat-

tons. Who does not with pleasure
revieG the days when he was cared for
by his fond mother, who was always
ready to administer to his wants! But
how many do fall victims to this care
and Overexertion and become mentally
worn out, their pleasing faces often
expressing agony and despair. All
such nervous affected should never
fail to use Phosphate Lemon Rye, the
great nerve tonic and positive cure for
dyspepsia. At all drug stores.
